• Ensure old grease is thoroughly removed before applying new grease.

6.2. Pemeriksaan

• Regularly check for excessive wheel play by grasping the top and bottom of the tire and attempting to rock it. Any significant movement indicates potential bearing wear or improper adjustment.
• Listen for unusual noises (grinding, humming) coming from the wheel hubs during operation.

• Inspect grease seals for leaks or damage. Replace if necessary.
